You guys, Christmas is literally just a little over 10 days away and I'm freaking out. There are so many Christmasy things to do in the city that I can't even. But what exactly is it about the holidays in Vancouver that makes it so special?

It's not just the the lights, the festive cookies and drinks, and the markets, it's not just the holiday parties, the decorations or even the people. If I'm being honest, I think it's all of those little things combined that makes Christmas so special. It's a celebration of life and love in literal translation into tangible things that we can see, smell and feel, like the trees and lights and heart-warming festive foods.

There are so many things to love about the holidays and if you love it just as much as I do, then I think you'll relate to this list. These are the 19 little things that make the holidays so magical in Vancouver.
